The WWE SmackDown after WrestleMania XL saw a new change in The Bloodline. Roman Reigns took some time off, and Solo Sikoa was left in charge. However, Sikoa took over, exiled Jimmy Uso, and brought Tama Tonga. The aggression of The Bloodline with Tanga Loa joining at WWE Backlash France has been unprecedented. The Wiseman Paul Heyman has been shocked by the turn of events, especially with Sikoa preventing him from talking to Reigns. Without any communication from the Tribal Chief, Sikoa makes a shocking claim on WWE SmackDown.

Solo Sikoa reveals he’s in contact with Roman Reigns

During the backstage segment, we saw Paul Heyman at the mercy of Sikoa. The whole segment was about lies that Heyman had said to Sikoa. It was revealed that the Wiseman was responsible for pulling Reigns’ name off the WWE Draft. Apparently, Reigns had no say in the matter. Heyman claimed that he was the Wiseman for Reigns. However, Sikoa replied, “Until he comes back, I’m in charge of The Bloodline!” He also claimed he’s been in contact with Reigns since Mania XL. This shocked the Wiseman and the fans, who believed that Reigns had no idea what was happening in The Bloodline.

The build-up post-Mania had been that Reigns was out of the loop regarding the ongoing changes in The Bloodline. With Sikoa not allowing the Wiseman to call Reigns after exiling Jimmy, fans took the narrative of a hostile takeover by Sikoa. However, with the new information, it just may be all part of Reign’s long-term plan. Unfortunately, fans have a new theory.

Was Sikoa lying about talking to Reigns?

According to fan speculation after watching the segment, Sikoa might be lying. Clearly, Heyman is scared for his life and was a valuable asset to Reigns. He concocted this new story to keep the Wiseman as Sikoa’s Wiseman. Heyman has clarified that his alliance still lies with the original Tribal Chief Reigns. But until Reigns returns and the New Bloodline takes care of him, Sikoa needs Heyman.

Fans have also speculated the impact Reigns’ return will make. Moreover, they compared the reunion of Reigns and Heyman to Randy Savage and Elizabeth reuniting at WrestleMania VII. There have been few yet tender moments between The Tribal Chief and his Wiseman that fans loved. What do you think? Is Sikoa lying? Is he really in touch with Reigns? Tell us what you think is going on in the comments.
